Hi, is this even possible? My goal is to organize my Mame roms and separate them by genres and put each genre in a separate folder. I'm using LightSpeed v0.183_Beta 10 After clicking (1)Filter, it populates the "Filter" tab with games. Does that mean those roms are the roms that are held back or let through during the filtering process? In the lower left corner of the screen, I select XML File from the drop down menu. I press the "..." button and give a name to the exported list. I then click the FILE MATCH button, and put a check on "ROMS" and select a destination folder under MAME ROMS. I press the "GO!" button and it says, "The outputview listview is empty so there are no games to be copied. Please add some games to the output listview and try again." I click on (2)Output. There are 3 fields to be filled out: -Emulate these games with. -this command line. -this Platform Name. I tried both the "Add all" button and the "Add selected" button. The output tab still has roms outside of the genres I selected on the FiltersA tab. So I don't really understand how this works. I read the manual.

I read the manual for the parts I need help with but I still don't know what I'm doing. I was able to point LightSpeed to my rom folder and also my mame folder. I started with all the check boxes at their default point. What I'm trying to do is output roms that fit a particular genre to a separate folder. Under the FiltersA tab, for the genre section, I only checked off vertical and horizontal shmups. Under the Export tab, I clicked on the Filter button, and then checked the Filtered tab on the left side of the screen. I don't see a difference? There are still games that are outside of shmups. What am I doing wrong?
